This is reminiscent of a brief storyline from the Scrubs season that never happened.

As a northern Englishman, this doesn’t work for me

Although if I say it fast and lazily I guess it kinda does

Most phonologists I know would probably use wedge for most of these since they’re stressed, because schwa is usually considered just an unstressed allophone of a bunch of different English vowels, and not an actual phoneme itself. Also, I have syllabic l in tunnel and barred i in cousin.

I came here to say this. A bunch of these vowels are definitely pronounced with a wedge. Even tried intentionally pronuncing the stressed vowels with a schwa, and it’s noticeably, jarringly off.

Would love hearing someone saying it out loud. I can’t do it myself

The trend of dropping all vowels implies schwa subsuming them all.
